You may remember the “Toxic” singer’s friendship with Madonna from their kiss during the 2003 MTV VMAs, but Spears’ connection to the legendary vocalist began long before the on-screen moment. However, when the “I’m a Slave 4 U” creator ended her relationship with NSYNC singer Justin Timberlake, Madonna went from Spears’ acquaintance to her “mentor”. “Madonna’s supreme confidence helped me see a lot about my situation with fresh eyes.” “I think she probably had some intuitive sense of what I was going through,” she continued.
